The road, by the second roundabout on the site of the former Louisburg Barracks and leading to Oxney Way, Limber Grove, Badger Place, Eric Tubb Road, Amherst Place, Skylark Street and North Parade, is called Artillary - rather than Artillery - Drive.
Louisburg Barracks - named after the city of Louisbourg in modern Canada, which was captured by Field Marshal Jeffery Amherst during the Seven Years’ War against France between 1756 and 1763 - was built in 1907 to house two artillery regiments. There was also a veterinary hospital for sick artillery horses on the site.
Accommodation for officers at Longmoor camp was named after Amherst - and Major General James Wolfe, who died leading Britain to victory over France at the Battle of the Plains of Abraham in Quebec in 1759.
Bombardier Eric Herbert Tubb joined 2 Field Regt, Royal Artillery in 1934, and in 1937 he married Ivy Wrighting, of Deadwater, in Alton.
He was killed in action on May 19, 1940, aged 23, in the Battle of Belgium near Leuven, and is buried in Estaimbourg Churchyard in Belgium. He was awarded the 1939-1945 Star and the 1939-45 War Medal.
A spokesperson for the Whitehill and Bordon Regeneration Company said that it would be up to site owners David Wilson Homes and Barratt Homes to correct the sign.
